Markus 5
1 Og de kom over til hin Side af Søen til Gerasenernes Land.
Jesus and his disciples arrived on the [east] side of Lake [Galilee. They landed near] where the Gerasene [people lived].
2 Og da han trådte ud af Skibet, kom der ham straks i Møde ud fra Gravene en Mand med en uren Ånd.
There was a man in that region whom evil spirits controlled.
3 Han havde sin Bolig i Gravene, og ingen kunde længer binde ham, end ikke med Lænker.
[Because that man was violent and people were afraid of him], they had tied him up many times. [As he grew more violent], no one was able to tie him up any longer, not even with chains,
4 Thi han havde ofte været bunden med Bøjer og Lænker, og Lænkerne vare sprængte af ham og Bøjerne sønderslidte, og ingen kunde tæmme ham.
because the chains would be broken by him {he would break the chains} whenever he was bound {they bound him} with them. The iron shackles would also be smashed by him {He would also smash the iron shackles} whenever they were fastened {they fastened them} [on his feet].
5 Og han var altid Nat og Dag i Gravene og på Bjergene, skreg og slog sig selv med Sten.
He lived in one of the caves [where they bury dead people]. During both night and day he would scream among the caves and in the hills. He would also cut himself with [sharp] stones. [That day] he came out of the caves.
6 Men da han så Jesus. Langt borte, løb han hen og kastede sig ned for ham
As Jesus [and his disciples got] out of the boat, that man saw Jesus from a distance. He immediately ran to Jesus, and then he knelt before him.
7 og råbte med høj Røst og sagde: "Hvad har jeg med dig at gøre, Jesus, den højeste Guds Søn? Jeg besvæger dig ved Gud, at du ikke piner mig."
Jesus said to the evil spirit, “You evil spirit, come out of this man!” [But the demon did not leave quickly]. It shouted very loudly, “Jesus, I [know that you are the] (Son of/man who is also) God, so (we have nothing in common./what do we have in common?) [IDM, RHQ] [So leave me alone] I ask you to promise, knowing God is listening, that you will not torture me [now]!”
8 Thi han sagde til ham: "Far ud af Manden, du urene Ånd!"
9 Og han spurgte ham: "Hvad er dit Navn?" Og han siger til ham: "Legion er mit Navn; thi vi ere mange."
[So, in order to expel the demon more easily], Jesus asked him, “What is your name?” He replied, “My name is Crowd/Mob because there are many of us [evil spirits in this man].”
10 Og han bad ham meget om ikke at drive dem ud af Landet.
Then the evil spirits fervently kept begging Jesus that he not send them out of the region.
11 Men der var der ved Bjerget en stor Hjord Svin, som græssede;
[At the same time], a large herd of pigs was (grazing/rooting for food) nearby on the hillside.
12 og de bade ham og sagde: "Send os i Svinene, så vi må fare i dem."
So the evil spirits pleaded with Jesus, “Allow us to go to the pigs in order that we might enter them!”
13 Og han tilstedte dem det. Og de urene Ånder fore ud og fore i Svinene; og Hjorden styrtede sig ned over Brinken ud i Søen, omtrent to Tusinde, og de druknede i Søen
He permitted them [to do that]. So the evil spirits left the man and entered the pigs. The herd, [which numbered] about 2,000, rushed down the cliff into the lake, and drowned in the lake.
14 Og deres Hyrder flyede og forkyndte det i Byen og på Landet; og de kom for at se, hvad det var, som var sket.
The men who had been tending the pigs ran and reported in the town and the countryside [what had happened. Many people] went to see what had happened.
15 Og de komme til Jesus og se den besatte, ham, som havde haft Legionen, sidde påklædt og ved Samling, og de frygtede.
They came to [the place where] Jesus [was]. Then they saw the man whom evil spirits had [previously] controlled. He was sitting there with clothes on and mentally sound. [As a result], they became afraid [because they thought that Jesus might destroy more of their property]. (OR, [they realized that Jesus must be very powerful].)
16 Men de, som havde set det, fortalte dem, hvorledes det var gået den besatte, og om Svinene.
The people who had seen what had happened described what had happened to the man whom the evil spirits [previously] controlled. They also described [what had happened to] the pigs.
17 Og de begyndte at bede ham om, at han vilde gå bort fra deres Egn.
Then the people pleaded with Jesus to leave their region.
18 Og da han gik om Bord i Skibet, bad den, som havde været besat, ham om, at han måtte være hos ham.
As Jesus got in the boat [in order to leave], the man whom the evil spirits [previously] controlled begged Jesus, “[Please let me] go with you!”
19 Og han tilstedte ham det ikke, men siger til ham: "Gå til dit Hus, til dine egne, og forkynd dem, hvor store Ting Herren har gjort imod dig, og at han har forbarmet sig over dig."
But Jesus did not let him [go with him]. On the contrary, he said to him, “Go home to your family and tell them how much the Lord [God] has done for you, and tell them how [God] was kind to you.”
20 Og han gik bort og begyndte at kundgøre i Bekapolis, hvor store Ting Jesus havde gjort imod ham; og alle undrede sig.
So the man left [and traveled around] the Ten Towns [district]. He told people how much Jesus had done for him. All the people [who heard what the man said] were amazed.
21 Og da Jesus igen i Skibet var faren over til hin Side, samledes der en stor Skare om ham, og han var ved Søen.
Jesus [and his disciples] went in a boat back around Lake [Galilee] to where they were before. When they arrived at the shore of the lake, a large crowd gathered around Jesus.
22 Og der kommer en af Synagogeforstanderne ved Navn Jairus, og da han ser ham, falder han ned for hans Fødder.
One of the men who presided over a (synagogue/Jewish meeting place), whose name was Jairus, came there. When he saw Jesus, he prostrated himself at his feet.
23 Og han beder ham meget og siger: "Min lille Datter er på sit yderste; o! at du vilde komme og lægge Hænderne på hende, for at hun må frelses og leve!"
Then he pleaded with Jesus earnestly, “My twelve-year old daughter is [sick and] nearly dead! [Please] come [to my house] and place your hands on her in order that she will be healed {to heal her}, so that she will not die!”
24 Og han gik bort med ham, og en stor Skare fulgte ham, og de trængte ham.
So Jesus [and the disciples] went with him. A large crowd followed [Jesus] and [many] pushed close to him.
25 Og der var en Kvinde, som havde haft Blodflod i tolv År,
There was a woman [in the crowd] who had vaginal bleeding [EUP] [every day] for twelve years.
26 og hun havde døjet meget af mange Læger og havde tilsat alt, hvad hun ejede, og hun var ikke bleven hjulpen, men tværtimod, det var blevet værre med hende.
She had suffered much while many doctors [treated her]. But although she had spent all [her money] to pay the doctors, she had not been helped {they had not helped her}. Instead, she had become worse [EUP].
27 Da hun havde hørt om Jesus, kom hun bagfra i Skaren og rørte ved hans Klædebon.
After she heard that Jesus [healed people], she came [to where he was and pushed] in the crowd [close] behind Jesus.
28 Thi hun sagde: "Dersom jeg rører blot ved hans Klæder, bliver jeg frelst."
She did that because she was thinking, “If I [touch him or] even if I touch his clothes, I will be healed {his power will heal me}.” So she touched Jesus’ clothes.
29 Og straks tørredes hendes Blods Kilde, og hun mærkede i sit Legeme, at hun var bleven helbredt fra sin Plage.
At once her bleeding stopped. At the same time, she sensed that she had been cured of {that [he] had cured} her illness.
30 Og straks da Jesus mærkede på sig selv, at den Kraft var udgået fra ham, vendte han sig om i Skaren og sagde: "Hvem rørte ved mine Klæder?"
Jesus [also] immediately sensed that his power had healed someone. So he turned around in the crowd and asked, “Who touched my clothes?”
31 Og hans Disciple sagde til ham: "Du ser, at Skaren trænger dig, og du siger: Hvem rørte ved mig?"
[One of] his disciples replied, “You can see that many people are crowding close to you! [Probably many people touched you]! So (why do you ask ‘Who touched me?’[/We are surprised] that you ask ‘Who touched me?’ [RHQ])”
32 Og han så sig om for at se hende, som havde gjort dette.
But Jesus kept looking around in order to see the one who had done it.
33 Men da Kvinden vidste, hvad der var sket hende, kom hun frygtende og bævende og faldt ned for ham og sagde ham hele Sandheden.
The woman was very afraid and trembling. [She thought that Jesus might be angry because she had violated the law that women who had such a] sickness [should not touch other people. But] she knew [that Jesus had healed her]. So she prostrated herself before him. Then she told him truthfully [about what she had done].
34 Men han sagde til hende: "Datter! din Tro har frelst dig; gå bort med Fred, og vær helbredt fra din Plage!"
He said to her, “(Ma’am/Young lady), because you have believed [that I could heal you], I have healed you. You may go home with peace [in your heart/inner being], [because I promise that] you will not be sick [this way any more].”
35 Endnu medens han talte, komme nogle fra Synagogeforstanderens Hus og sige: "Din Datter er død, hvorfor umager du Mesteren længere?"
While Jesus was still speaking [to that woman], some people arrived who had come from Jairus’ house. They said [to Jairus], “Your daughter has [now] died. So (it is useless that you bother the teacher any longer [by urging him to go to your house]!/why do you bother the teacher any longer [by urging him to go to your house]?) [RHQ]”
36 Men Jesus hørte det Ord, som blev sagt, og han siger til Synagogeforstanderen: "Frygt ikke, tro blot!"
But when Jesus heard what these men said, he said to Jairus, “Do not think that the situation is hopeless! Just keep believing [that she will live]!”
37 Og han tilstedte ingen at følge med sig uden Peter og Jakob og Johannes, Jakobs Broder.
Then he allowed only [his three closest disciples], Peter, James, and John, to go with him [to Jairus’ house]. He did not allow any other people to go with him. After they arrived near the house, Jesus saw that the people there were in turmoil. They were weeping and wailing [DOU] loudly.
38 Og de komme ind i Synagogeforstanderens Hus, og han ser en larmende Hob, der græd og hylede meget.
39 Og han går ind og siger til dem: "Hvorfor larme og græde I? Barnet er ikke død, men det sover."
He entered the house and then he said to them, knowing that [he was going to cause her to live again], “(Do not make such a disturbance!/Why are you making such a disturbance?) [RHQ] Stop crying, for the child is not dead! On the contrary, she is [only] sleeping [HYP, EUP]!”
40 Og de lo ad ham; men han drev dem alle ud, og han tager Barnets Fader og Moder og sine Ledsagere med sig og går ind, hvor Barnet var.
The people laughed at him, [because they knew that she was dead]. But he sent all the other people outside the house. Then he took the child’s father and mother and the [three disciples] who were with him. He went into [the room] where the child was [lying].
41 Og han tager Barnet ved Hånden og siger til hende: "Talitha kumi!" hvilket er udlagt: "Pige, jeg siger dig, stå op!"
He took hold of the child’s hand and said to her [in her own language], “Talitha, Koum!” That means, “Little girl, get up!”
42 Og straks stod Pigen op og gik omkring; thi hun var tolv År gammel. Og de bleve straks overmåde forfærdede
At once the girl got up and walked around. ([It was not surprising that she could walk], because she was twelve years old.) [When this happened, all who were present] were very astonished.
43 Og han bød dem meget, at ingen måtte få dette at vide; og han sagde, at de skulde give hende noget at spise.
Jesus ordered them strictly, “Do not tell anyone about [what I have done]!” Afterwards he told them that something to eat should be brought to the girl {that they should bring the girl something to eat}.
